[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How can the OP be 100% disabled. Given his ability to post and communicate here, file a FOIA, and research federal hiring rules, seems like he could easily hold an office job. “Disability” is complete BS.[/quote]

I thought the same. I don’t know how some people can live with themselves. [/quote]

I really wasn't aware that so many people posting here hadn't served in the military before. I guess that is why I'm getting so much negativity from others here, because they are likely government employees that didn't like how they had to compete with prior service and preference candidates and now hold a grudge. I guess that is also why I am so suspicious of this process because its a human sitting in that HR seat looking over resumes and deciding who gets to pass and who doesn't. Those same grudge holders are now gate keepers. They never tell you straight up why you don't get referred either, you literally have to inquire and usually multiple times to get an answer. When you do get an answer it usually includes a lot of gray areas that aren't exactly clear and concise in the application process. Its quite literally a barbaric process in regards to technology and efficiency. Failing to check one block appropriately could allow them to pass you by without even looking at the rest of your application. So you likely qualified but oops, you checked no instead of yes in that one block.  That one block is usually a block that includes about 12 sentences and a lot of legal rambling and only included you in one sentence toward the bottom. I mean they offer special classes to teach you how to apply for these positions.

You want to talk about living with myself? Twenty years plus of breaking my body down into pieces and serving in multiple war zones, and now having to take a handful of pills each day just to allow me to get a few hours of sleep at night. Yeah I still exercise to some degree and can get around, but I'm not the same person I used to be, and you know what, I knew that going in. I volunteered to spend those 20 years doing the things I did because I knew at the end of the road there would be some good benefits for me and my family. I sacrificed years of my own life and quality home life with my family in order to get something good for US in the end. So no, I don't feel guilty at all, and I'm sorry you think I have something that I don't deserve. [/quote]
